from Powell's Books powells.com
"Becan (Cinder Lad) has large feet and a magical bull for a fairy
godmother. He defeats a sword-swinging giant, slays a fire-breathing
dragon, and rescues a princess.But before the princess can thank him,
he runs off, leaving her with only an enormous boot to aid her in the
search for her rescuer.And, as in all Cinderella stories, true love
prevails.
Review:
"A must for collectors of Cinderella variants."(--Kirkus Reviews)"
There are no REALLY new stories, are there? Think Harry will lose a
boot in 7??
